any typos are entirely on the USA military employing illiterates, not me
“Prepared for” not “equipped with”
The empire hasn’t won a war it wasn’t bailed out of in the last 100 years.
The amount of hair splitting you’re doing is fun. Military wouldn’t “prepare it” at the manufacturing level if it was not going to be a kit they’d use.
Sounds modular, so they can remove it if they dont need it for the mission set.
M829A3 is just overall worse than A2 as it isnt doing what its supposed to and its slower
I think what most people fail to understand is the war is for the arms manufacturing money and rare earths/oil. Since ww2 its only ever been about making money, not winning a conflict.
But yeah, if we are looking at it from a civvie stand point you’re right.
no ones saying otherwise, but acting as if the british werent there as you did is just wrong.
And the british empire had over 1 million in the burma campaign alone mate.
Definitely agreed man.
Someone said its mass is almost double so it spalls more?
Take it up with Gaijin Bub. they are the ones that decided to make it a separate tank, not me.
Dunno why people on here feel the need to attack anybody that tries to offer a possible explanation for a decision like they where personally the one that made it.
Its only 1.58kg heavier and on test drive it didnt punch through T90A K5 armor
Uh no. I responded to your comment - not gaijins. Weird tactic dude.
I think ill stick with SEPV2 as SEPV3 literally doesnt bring anything other than stock crew and 150mm RHA on cheeks
Yeah… assuming I was talking to someone with an IQ above room temperature that could understand that there is a difference between “planed to do a thing” and “actually did a thing” was a failed effort wasn’t it.
No its okay, you keep feeling smart while failing to understand how militaries execute on their manufacturing process and mission packages.
Future mission capabilities is something militaries hardbake into their combat designs because they plan on using them a long time. This means fitting them for future mission packages they haven’t even developed yet.
Meanwhile you, thinking as a civvie just goes “der they said they manufactured the capability but doesnt say they used it so der they didnt use it”.
Insult me all you want, but literally anyone who has military or military contractor experience is gonna scroll past you because you’re wrong and have zero clue what you’re talking aboit.
Its crazy how confident you’re laying off your grasp of an entire industry/government from a document you read and then decided to interpret to fit your own pet prefence.
Your IQ comment is barely a highschool level insult. So if that’s the best you’ve got after we’ve discussed this for like… 3 comments, how on earth do you expect anyone to look at your interpretation of the document and think “wow this guy is smart and must be an expert”.
Spoiler alert, no one.
Nothing changes

I knew it was nothing burger and now they have buffed Relikt, i mean they just wanted to buff Relikt, M829A3 addition is just a excuse in it’s current form it isn’t a credible upgrade than A2 , best apfsds round is reserved only for Russian tank it seems (Object 292)
And im pretty sure on release it had 695mm at 10m now it got 698 at 10m, idk when the 3mm buff happened but buff for other darts is a big no
War thunder players : My western tank suck please fix its issues
Gaijin - Ok, now we will buff USSR tanks instead
